Slimline Card, What Size to Make
A slimline card (also called a tall card) is any size card that fits into a business sized envelope. A No.10 sized business envelope is 9.5 x 4.125, so any card that fits into this sized envelope can be called "slimline." We have created a slimline card below that features our Koi Swimming Rubber Stamp along with our Lotus Rubber Stamp. The Koi are swimming on a blue background made by applying a light blue ink onto white card stock. The result it a beautiful card made for any occasion. To create this pretty card, create several layers of card stock. You will be cutting 2 diagonal lines on the top most layer to create an opening for the pond of fish. I will show you how below. You will need: Card stock (your choice of colors) I used white, blue, silver, and blue with silver embossing.
